HE IS GOD OF DANCINGHE INSPIRED THE WHOLE WORLDHE IS THE KING AND ALWAYS BE LONG LIVE KING LONG LEGEND LONG LIVE MICHAEL JACKSON

King of dancer, he is the best dancer in the world, no one can beat MJ.

Best dancer in the history of history of time I loved him he is so good Michael will always rule in all of our hearts GO MICHAEL!

2Chris BrownChristopher Maurice "Chris" Brown (born May 5, 1989) is an American singer, songwriter, dancer and actor. Born in Tappahannock, Virginia, he was involved in his church choir and several local talent shows from a young age.

I will like Chris brown because he moves all his body to dance including stepping and stunts. HE IS THE BEST. HE IS NEW WITHIN NEW STEPS. I LOVE HIM. WATCH STORM THE YARD AND BE CARRIED AWAY WITH DANCE LETS DANCE IT ALL THANK YOU.

- tundor

He rocks I like his song yeah 3x and his dance in it... He is unbeatable after Michael Jackson he should have been there there would have been a storm if he was there he is just the best

I like CHRIS BROWN because he can do any dance move - goldenskull1358

Greatest Hip hop dancer in the world and so confident in his way of dancing and his voice is magic.

2nd rank should given to hritik reason is.. his clear steps and perfect movements. beat and his rythm goes hand in hand

Finest dancer in India... Fantastic.. The way he moves it's really please to watch and worth seeing... Just dance!

Hrithik should be 2nd best after Michael as he is the god of dance and has a very good flexible body which supports his steps. All his recent movies and dance shows show how efficient he is in dancing.

Ya correct he has his own style when comparing with prabhu so after hrithik prabhu will come

5UsherUsher Terry Raymond IV is an American singer, songwriter, dancer, and actor. Born in Dallas, but raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee was where he lived until moving to Atlanta, Georgia at the age of 12 where his mother put him in local singing competitions all over the city.

ARE you serious usher has been the man since his debut. The way he dances and the showmanship he has is fantastic. He can make the simplest move look so good. Who was the last person who could do that? I think that was mj

Usher should definitely be much higher up on this ranking. He is at least a better dancer than hrithick roshan.

Usher is the best dancer

Usher is probably the best after MJ. He's moves are so unique. He's got style and rhythm unlike CB who just does the same thing over and over again

People will be watching, and be amazed, at Astaire (and Rogers) 1000 years from now. He is that good.

Unbelieveable!, that anyone in their right mind who could think or say that anyone else is even a close second to Fred Astaire has not watched one of his films. Michael Jackson, who many think was the best dancer of all time couldn't tie Fred Astaire's shoelaces copyed James Brown and who knows whom else. All his moves were virtually the same. Take a close look at his dance moves. Fred Astaire was in a league all by himself my friends and make no mistake about that. He also choreographed a lot of his dance and was the ultimate perfectionist. Wake up people!

Astaire & Rogers were spectacular. He had moves Michael Jackson didn't- and if he were of the same time as Jackson, dancing in that style, he could have done anything Jackson did, and more, and the same goes for Ginger. A lot of dancing now uses the upper body- like the "robot" type moves-Fred had incredible feet, from tap moves to whatever-and if he were around now he could have done the upper body moves with the best of them, so: Fred- and Ginger (hypothetically)- have everyone beat.

He is the best, according to my opinion. Dance is not about stunts but of craze, his Dance makes enjoy every movement compared to allu, etc

He is my best dancer. Look at his different composition of dances and his expressions which vibrate masses in a great way. His effortless style, mannerisms and charisma are way better than those stars of now!

He is my best dancer because he danced very well in tamil film kaanchana. I like him very much. His style while dancing is very nice.

The Contenders

11Gene KellyEugene Curran Kelly (August 23, 1912 – February 2, 1996), known as Gene Kelly, was an American dancer, actor of film, stage and television, singer, film director, producer and choreographer. He was known for his energetic and athletic dancing style, his good looks, and the likeable characters that ...read more.

He's not even in the top 50... For shame, internet, for shame. To those of you who haven't seen "Singing in the Rain", please do. You see, the dances were done in almost one take, no breaks. It was done to show how amazing his dances were. And by the way, if you don't think tap dancing is good dancing, I suggest you get off the top 40, stop "Dougeying" and learn a little music history.

Come on Gene Kelly belongs in the top ten best dancers of all time. The man was still dancing and contributing to dance until the end of his life at age 83! I saw him live in 1976 in St Louis, MO and I was extremely impressed with his agility. Besides who else has danced with a cartoon mouse?

Just see him dance on roller skates. I am sure that no other mortal could perform that dance. He was the best in his era and also forever. He will not see his like again.

All... We are influenced by who and how people are viewed in the media. This influences our voting regardless of how we think. Before Michael Jackson, James Brown, Gregory Hines, Prince, etc... They pulled from the Greatest Dancers of all times The Nicholas Brothers. Check out You Tube "Stormy Weather" 1943 and you can see for yourselves. Don't always assume it's someone from our generation. Our generation had to of learned from someone before them.

The only reason I can imagine that anyone here votes for neither of the Nicholas Brothers is not having seen their performances. It is that easy. Luckily YouTube is only a click away!

They are the greatest of all time, I just seen their video on utube. and I am having pain right now after watching stormy jumping splits weather. My God, they are simply the greatest and they are not from my era. Thank you to the Nicholas brothers!

13Harold Nicholas

I am a Harold nicholas I am a very good dancer vote me plece

He sucks

14Madhuri DixitMadhuri Dixit, also known by her married name Madhuri Dixit Nene, is an Indian actress who is known for her work in Hindi cinema.

Queen of Classical Dance... I Like it... - tayal5001

Dumbest dancer ever. How can you even compare her with Chris Brown & Michael Jackson - Raghavbakshiultimate

Madhuri is the queen of dancing and bollywood. What lovely and remarkable expressions. She is surely the best. I appeal to everyone to please vote for madhuri. She deserves to top the list

Michael jackson is leading, but James brown isn't even in the top 10? For shame. - gmarsh

Michael Jackson was inspired by James Brown, yet "CHRIS BROWN" beats him out? Are we serious here folks? Let's give JB the respect he deserves!

Holy oversight batman! James Brown is the originator, there is none greater, all others who follow are merely imitators. Hammer, Michael, Usher, Brown would not be in the list were it not for the man that made the moves and created the hooks that ALL of them sampled and reused... Take Superbad and Funky Drummer alone.

16Janet JacksonJanet Jackson is a singer and dancer who is well known for her sexually graphic records, iconic performances, and slightly weak voice. She is regarded as a sex symbol through her songs and videos.

Janet Jackson is an idol without her Jennifer Lopez wouldn't even have a career set for her so she need to be at number 3. She was an idol and she could always dance and still doing it at 45 so she an icon. More like number one!

the best dancer to me, the queen the only person who touch her is her brother only! period!

17Ginger RogersGinger Rogers, born Virginia Katherine McMath (July 16, 1911 – April 25, 1995) was an American actress, dancer, and singer. She is known for her performances in films and RKO's musical films in which she was partnered with Fred Astaire.

19Chloe LukasiakChloe Elizabeth Lukasiak is an American dancer, television personality, actress and model. She is best known for being an original cast member of Lifetime's reality television series Dance Moms during Season 1 through Season 4.

She is not only a real person and has her own insecurity's alike the rest of the human kind. She is misunderstood and shown the world during teen choice that she can dance and that's important, she can prove herself

She is amazing and works so hard after all she has been through on Dance Moms

Chloe is an amazing person and she's so kind, and she's also an amazing dancer, but I feel like maddie was better than her. I love chloe though, she was incredible - pjo

The best female "dancer" ever. If you've never heard of her (Google! ) In one of the all time best dance sequences EVER, Powell & Fred Astaire amazed to "Begin the Begine" in the movie "Broadway Melody of 1940." I watch it today and am blown away by Powell & her agility and rhythm. If you want to see "dancer" in the true sence of the word. Watch anything performed by Eleanor Powell!

Young people don't have a clue, first of all you had to dance even before you could act. Eleanor Powell was the best...
